As June arrives and summer approaches, we at Engadget are reminded of all the great things our fathers have done. Celebrations are still a little tough to pull off this year, but thankfully things are getting better. Whether you’re having a face-to-face get-together, you can still celebrate dad and thank him for all the life advice and corny jokes he’s blessed you with over the years.

To help you do so, we’ve pulled together our best gift ideas in our annual Father’s Day gift guide. If your old man is a grill master in training, our backyard gear list has a bunch of items that will up his game. If you know a new dad who’s trying to wrangle a tiny baby while staying somewhat sane, our list of first Father’s Day gift ideas will fit the bill. And if you’re tight on cash but still want to get him a gift he’ll actually use, we have an entire list of recommendations under $50 so you can do that while sticking to your budget. Regardless of how you end up celebrating this year, we hope you’re able to spend some quality time with dad, and maybe even make his day with a thoughtful gift.
